PROFESSOR Ba1Rp's RESIDENCE.

PROFESSOR BAIRD'S RESIDENCE.
every morning he keeps the stenographel
busy attending to correspondence and
writing out reports, Instructions, letters
and scientific articles. This part OF his
work can be done by no one else. BY
O'Clock he has finished, and leaving his
stenographer to prepare the papers iol
his signature, he lesves the residence foI
the institute. Here, for two or three
hours, he receives callers and attends to
the routine work of his office. He is also
the head OF the fsh commission, and ne
gives that an hour or two each day. But
this anu many other things with which he
is connected does not come properly
within the province Of this article.
Professor Baird is essentially O worker
When one has written of mis- work nothing
remains to be told. He retires at II
O'Clock and arises ct en- early hour. He
never goes to a lecture or the theater
and the dinners and receptions he attends
during season can be counted on the
fingers on one hand. He gives it out in
confidence that the first reason that he
doesn't 90 out is that he knows he will &C
to sleep, and the second is that he doesn't
want to, but prefers staying at home with
his books. What does he do with his
leisure time ? Well, he has precious lit
tie of that delightful commodity, and Whist
little he has is spent IN readiag novels

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-There is no
more interesting place at the national
capital to the visitor than the Smithsonian
Institute and National Museum, especially
If he happens to be student of natural
history, archaeology, mineralogy, Gntiqui
ties or any of the kindred sciences. The
superficial sightseer and the laborious
student are alike provided for; the one
with objects Of historic interest, the other
with thousand and one collections that
enable him to make an Intelligent study
OF almost every science. After the
stranger has seen the wonders and beau
ties of the great white-domed Capitol,
touched the boarded millions at the
Treasury Department, and climbed
the 500 steps that lead to the top of the
Washington Monument, he will very
likely experience feeling of rel eff when
lie strolls over the graveled walks which
interlsce the beautiful park of nearly a
hundred acres surrounding the buildings.
Within the two large museums he will
ind many things 20 amuse, instruct and
interest him. Strolling through the
aisles, between long rows OF GLASGOW
cred cases, he mas before him the results
OF years of labor and research, and count
less miles of travel in strange lands.

MARVELLOUS CHANGES.
What tho Future VIII be to Those who
Refuse to Believe.

Is this country unconsciously undergo
ing wonderful change, is the change TO
take place before we are aware of the
| fact, and when it has taken place will we
wonder why we did not see it before it
WIGS too late :?
Those that see the changes early avail
themselves carly, end thereby receive
benefit.
The shrewd iron man sees the iron in
tere s. transferred from Pitt-burg AID
Pennsylvania to Birmingham, Ala, and
IN his far-siehtedness sees the furnaces
| in Pernsylvsnii torn down and deserted
fer this new and prolific field. it is
claimed by the iron men Of Alabama that
the low price at which iron can be pro-
duced there will revolution!ze the iron
interests of the world.
We have seen the grsin-growing celters
Of this country shifted to the west. We
have seen the poTk-pscking industry fit
from Cincinnati to Chicago, and from
thence to Kansas City and Omahs. South
ern cotton mills undersell New England
and American markets, and challenge the
world.
We have seen and are seeing ell this
take place before our eyes, and know that
other changes sre taking place equally as
prominent. and We wonder as we behold
them. Ten years ago the insurance COM
panies only required en- analysis of the
fluids when they were taking insurance
for very largA amounts. To-Day
no tirst-class company will in
sure any amour, unless they have
rigid analysis Of the Luids passed, and if
any traces of certain disorders are
spparent, the application is rejected. In
their reports they show that the death of
sixty of every 100 people in this country
is due either directly or indirectly to such
disorders. The Brompton Hospital for
Consumptives, London, England, reports
that sixty of 'esery 100 victims Of con-
sumption also haSesssrious disorders OF
the kidneys. d
Among scientistssforS the treatment al
this dread malady The questioRis being
discussed:
